JULY 2007
Ok....let see....first was a big round of backstabbing and complain about my work....a bitch that taking over my area come back to office and told the business manager that my service to a lecturer in a private university was very bad till my name was blacklisted.....
I have no idea why but it seems that the lecturer claim that my service to him is bad because I do not deliver the good he ordered and I said “if you wanna cancel.....cancel la”.
A totally different of what I told the stupid lecturer. And the good was not supplied by the supplier....so I had to resort to give a temporary replacement and even allow him to cancel the order if he does not want it.....i’m like OH MY GOD......why the lecturer in that private university like this one….this is the second case I kena liao.
Then my sales coordinator claim my work is messy and I did not pass things to her well....okla..i admit la…my work can only be followed up by myself la....but I am also following up others mess as well....I already informed her where are my things is...and if you need to know anything..just sms me or email me. I even told her where are my things if she needs to use it....plus, I already did all the necessary things I should have done before I left. Just that a few recent requests during my trip.
So what can I say....backstabbing happens when you are not around to stop it. My boss told me to do my thing properly and avoid these things to happen again.....there I go spending the rest of the week....getting the bulk of work I got during the trip and some promised visit to the customers…
Then out of the sudden....the following week....a call from the boss asking me to go back office after meeting my customer....I normally will be heading home after meeting my customers....my boss is ok with it all these while....
But things have change....the vice president now is the kind that mind sales going home after meeting customer and need to go back office to show our faces even we are not back to do any work....which I hate by the way.
This Vice president.....commented that I am not getting my sales and not doing my work well....you see....from the backstabbing and insufficient of sales.....i am being the one she first tried to shoot using the new found power…so my boss was so stressed from her comment...till she scolded me and everyone else....for the first time....i never seen her so angry all these while.....so I just shut up and let her blow up.
After she blowed up.....i explain why I got all these comments....sigh.....after all the “Don’t worry we won’t let you die....there will be an incubation period” so where all these empty promises from the VP????...she told me all these when I accept the post transfer.....and now.....what do I get?? Comment that I am incapable of doing my work? Where is the FUCKING incubation period? 1 fucking month? 1 which I have like 2 weeks to see my customers....come on la....I only started to see come of the customer in mid June..... then I left for Ho Chi Minh for a week..came back I have tons of work and I am already meeting some customers. And BAM the second week........I got the comment!..
Dammit man...........
So after the comment, my boss advised me to be smart in planning my outing and try to go back office after going out. So there go my free and easy working hours. The remaining of the months...I planned my outing well...meeting my customers...getting quotation...just to shut the mouth of the VP..
But that did not end...my boss got so stressed out....till she dropped the marketing and joining me to service the industrial market...so that the figures given to her will be reached....to be frank...alone by myself..i do not think I can and so do my boss. It is obvious because most industrial market already had their blanket order early of the year and they are still on it till now...so...sigh...what can I say...try my best lo....
This has been a bad month man.....so stressed...till I gained weight because I am too stressed out and worried on my work till I did not monitor my eating....I kept eating and eating and more eating.....my mind was too distracted....I did not get enough sleeps.....resulting in more coffee..and craving for food I should have to avoid.....i end up eating the food to keep me happy.....now my weight shoots up...every one noticed it....and so do i...
AH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to go back and be myself now....I just do my best and if it is not enough...then by all means fire me la.....i do not mind..hahahah...coming from the generation that dares to disobey orders.....lets see how my august will be? Hopefully better I think.
JUNE 2007
So let’s see what happened…in June
1st....
Well the merging process…went on as scheduled….lots of HOO and HAH…lots of confusion….then came the seating shifting….move this move that..
2nd....
Next, the let go…. I have to let go all the account I have been working on for the past few months since I started….i barely left with nothing much but few customers that was passed on. I had to really contact all the customer….from previous handled ones…so I practically need to open the freaking industrial market back.
3rd...
With all the uncertainty, I began to worried…so I asked my boss for opinion…even she worried…she suggested we go see the VP…the first thing she said was…Don’t worry…we won’t let you die….oh! before I forget…we’re sending you to Vietnam for the XXX meeting on the 25-29 June….my response was…nothing but surprised…..
4th...
Then for the next a week and a half, life was really good…I do not have much to do…I practically go meet some customer that was passed on to me……..lepak…out of a sudden…the existing orders asking for stock…and the stock was not ordered….and the extra stock…will not be reaching for another week! There I go explaining to the customers…and all the scolding….boy….this is what I hate…settle people’s mess!!...just the last day, Friday before I left for Vietnam on the 25th….the stock arrived…and the order was sent out. So I settle all my request and then pass on everything that need to be followed up and say au revoir to everyone
5th..
After I came home…anne told her she managed to get some ticket to go watch GT race in Sepang…so I agreed to take the tickets. Well it’s better than nothing la..since the F1 tickets which we nearly managed to get disappeared last minutes…so this is a consolation. So that Sunday morning…we head to Sepang….spent the whole afternoon there….BOY it is damn hot…and the worst was on the way back to my car at 430 pm…all of us got sunburnt!!..so in conclusion, in that 1 particular day
a) we got our ear drum massively vibrated
b) we got our sauna
c) we got our tan
6th..
Then I had to rush to exchange some cash to Vietnam dong…I have 2 million and I brought it to Vietnam…hahahahaha…I am a millionaire there….
7th...
So that morning…on the 25th June…..I woke up…took my limo to KLIA…checked in and then waited for extra 2 hours due to the technical problem the plane had….there I was bored to death…hungry like hell….not to mention thirsty….and then only I can board the plane and flew there.
8th...
Upon reaching Vietnam…the flight became very bad…the turbulence was very bad….till the plane actually dropped down 2 times….my heart almost fell out…hahahahaha…..but even the landing was bad. Then it rain very heavy and to make matter worst, the plane is not connected to the skybridge….only a bus is there to pick up passengers and its not even parked closely to the stair…everyone practically had to walk down the rain into the bus.
9th...
At the airport, again I had to walk down the rain…go up an escalator only to realized, the airport looks like the old Subang airport. The immigration officers are not friendly, not even a smile…following the sign board…I grab my luggage bag and head to the gate. Saw a taxi counter….i ordered a taxi for 75000 vietnam dong…..approximately USD$5….followed the lady to the taxi and went into an Vios taxi…the first corner in the car was a big surprised….the traffic there is havoc. Over taking, queue jumping, honking and half of the lane are filled with motorbikes and bicycles…….anyway…it makes my driving much more better.hahahahaha….one traffic lights after another…about 30 of them and only 7 kms from the airport to my hotel but took more than 40 minutes.
10th...
I reached the hotel at 4pm Malaysian time (Vietnam is 1 hour behind). I checked into the room. Went into their restaurant to have my late lunch. Rested for a while then head out to walk around the hotel getting some souvenir. Just in case I do not have the time to do so for the next few days. Walking out ain’t easy. The pavements are not even. The people look at you everywhere you go. I walked for about and hour then went back hotel. I spent the rest of the night online and watch tv.
11th..
The next few days were practically sitting at the small conference room…listening to the product introduction…and discussions…but the good thing is…i get free food…tons of coffee for spiking….hahahaha…but Vietnam coffee is good….i even got a free dinner boat ride along the river…though its boring…such a big generation gap…cos I am the youngest among the bunch!!
12th...
But still I managed to have some good free time..hehehehe…I actually got the last day mostly free to go for a small trip…walking around the town area…then its time to leave Ho Chi Minh….i woke up early…took a taxi and off I go to the airport….and I am backed to KL by noon….i called back office and got the rest of the day off…
13th...
The next day, i had to go back office…cos it's a working Saturday…a stupid company policy…5th Saturday of the month is a working one. But that morning…there nothing much to be done and I even donated my blood…and I rushed to cineleisure for TRANSFORMERS…damn it is a great movie till a friend of mine even claimed “IT'S BETTER THAN SEX”…

May 28th - June 3rd
the next few days...i practically tried not to talk as much as possible...and ended up staying in the office....then on Thursday evening...about 4pm..i took the opportunity to ask my boss for any early warning for surprises for the Friday grouping announcement...i felt something amiss as my boss looked stressed...and tried to leave office early....she always do so when she is stressed up...
and my hunch was correct...apparently, i no longer be selling consumables as planned earlier. but still i am under my current boss but with different post. i was told that i will be under her under the dealer and industrial division. but my sissy colleague will be transferred to the consumables department under another manager's supervision. so i guess my boss felt devastated as she cant pull my colleague to be under her as she promised early during the initial grouping announcement.
so came Friday morning, i went to the announcement with no fear since i have known the outcome. others felt restless as they were not informed or hinted.....then they were announcing...who is going where and under who...slowly from one division to another...then came the marketing, dealer and industrial division...bla bla bla... Stephen will be covering the industrial as industrial sales specialist.... then out of the sudden the vice president said " Stephen! where are you?? i put up my hand...and then she said.." Stephen, this industrial market has been long neglected and now we want to tap into this area and expand......after the discussion we felt you are the best candidate for this position....you will have a target of RM 1 million!!!" i was stunt!! my eye almost popped out of the socket!!
i spent the rest of my day thinking...damn!...how am i going to get Rm 1 Million of sales...this year and i have 7 months more to go!...
but..hey...my parent was in town over the weekend to help take care of my little niece while her parent took her sister for a vacation at Redang. so i enjoy their company..

MAY 21st-27th
then came wednesday morning, i called for a limo to LCCT way early, 630am and yet the limo came 610am....i rushed and hop into the limo and head to LCCT...reached there...ate breakfast at McD....and waited for my boss who is famous to be late and as expected...she did..hahhah....
we then checked in. we even got a bad look and a reminder from the steward for being late.
then..hahaha...the worst thing happened....apparently our beloved HR people booked the wrong day of flight....we initially supposed to flew in to kuching on tuesday instead of wednesday. but then i changed it and informed her (luckily i filled up the form as proof). she manged to change the hotel date and not the flights...and i was so busy, i did not aware of the error at all....until we check in...HAHAHHA...
so after clarified with the HR, we bought the next flight to kuching and head there. luckily we managed to get it.....delayed by more than an hour we flew in at 10 am and reached kuching at 12 something....rushed out...rented a wira....head to the hotel.
with the simple map on hand, my boss and i blindly found our way to the hotel...hahaa....tried it several times now....checked in to our rooms....we rested for a while and i contacted our customer.....the one that we supposed to meet can only meet us during dinner hours
since we felt not hungry we met an customer and spent about an hour. towards the end of the meeting the scheduled customer called and inform he can meet us in out hotel (its only 330pm). but then we haven have our lunch leh.......alredy feeling hungry...we drove back to hotel and waiting for the guy to reach at the cafe...we ordered the teat time set but only managed to get to eat it at 515.....its in front of me and yet i had to pretend i am full....
bla bla bla...we ended the meeting at 615....my boss and i then changed...and have a walk at the famous kuching waterfront....bought some fridge magnet and went back to our room about 730pm....feeling full we passed dinner...
but then i felt like..stupid rite.....got allowance to eat dinner and not having it...so i called up room service and ordered nasi goreng ala sarawak...priced at 11 something..hahahah thinking that i do not need to pay for it...
slept soundly....wake up bout 800am feeling blur!!!....bathe and went down for breakfast....only about 11 we went to meet our last customer....we got lost so badly...till we took an hour to find the place....discussed for more than an hour we left and found a parking summon...hahha.....well since its a rental we ignore la..hahha...
not repeating the no having lunch...we hunted for food and drove around kuching.....but my boss request for food....is very demanding...this la....that la...and we ended up in a rotten local fast food...but luckily the food still taste ok....
head to the airport...waited for a long long time...left kuching at 6pm reached at 730pm...
drop dead tired...
then i spent my thursday and friday getting my work sorted up.....
spent my saturday with my pets and then head to ss2 to Darren place to get new pair of specs and relens another....RM560..gone...then went dinner with him and joanne....
come Sunday...i head to cineleisure to watch pirates of Caribbean....was a great movie...but then after lunch....my headache which i had since thursday turn worst together with the flu.....
i finally lost the battle to influenza after 3 days...
May 16th -20th

he called at about 2pm n certified the gearbox and it was replaced with a recond set. together with the break pad and etc...TOTAL BILL = RM 2178.00. bourne by father of course.
so i was at home for the whole saturday..... resting....then on Sunday i went to ikea with joanne and we head to sunway for buffet steamboat with her bf....damn i ate like unknown amount of foods...ahahaha

One problem after another
then the remaining week was ok with usual schedule till Friday. well it was ok la..i drove to Ipoh, to meet customer and of course i stayed back in Bidor for the weekend and another round on Monday. over the weekend, i spent my time practically bored but yet i enjoyed it.
one thing that got serious was my car's gear, it got more jerky in between ok 80-120km/h...so i asked my dad to get it checked on Saturday and as usual he test drove it and said its like this one. but he did alternate the tyre since it is a free service...hehehe..so i can save some money.
So on Monday after i did my round in Ipoh, i head back to Bidor, get my stuff and then head back to KL while the car's condition turned from bad to worse. but since i need to work today, i make it a must do thing this weekend to have my car check.
then BAM, this morning just when i wanted to reverse my car, well there is not any. NONE. not a single jerk but yet i can still move forward. so my bro and i tried to push the car out of the porch and waited for the workshop to open. i called back office to inform but was told there will be a announcement, apparently, the company restructure is really taking place. another BAM for the day. so i drove my car to the workshop and surprisingly the reverse gear is back. the mechanic, a less experience one test drove it and requested me to leave my car with them. but then i am late to work, so i just went ahead and drove to work, i reached office 30 minutes late. went in to the meeting room and the announcement almost ended. so i was left blank with almost no input.
next i tried to settle whatever on hand and then left for Monash in the afternoon. i head back home early and found the car got worst. i stopped by the workshop again and ask for a more experience guy to test it. and so he did, he proposed that i change the automatic fluid and hope it can help to minimised the effect or otherwise a full replacement of gearbox for approximately RM2K.
well...just when i thought my problematic day ended, my next door who is a Malay married to a Chinese guy, and i thought she is a open type, but apparently she is not. she complain that Hugo is shedding too much and his fur is everywhere, even into her house.
URGGGGGH.....................
so now i need to try to minimise the shedding and the easiest way is to keep him inside the kennel at the other side of the house, away from her front door. well what can i do...BERDOSA la.....sigh.......the special term has been use, tak kan i ignore right. so pity the naughty fella and i have to think of ways to expand his enclosure..
AH...............i have enough of problems at this moment. please please please. i need a break.

Free and easy week
but the planning night outing was completely cancelled from going velvet to cineplex and eventually i ended up at home online and slept early.....ahhahaha.......then i spent my tues watching tv doing nothing but nothing....
but wednesday was a full outing day.....woke up...and off i go to the curve and stopped by UOB, kota damansara to settle my CC bill...damn..i really need another alternative CC...so mah fan to settle the bill....anyway...met up with the girls for lunch at Dragon i and ate the "siu lung pau".....and watched Spiderman 3....well all i can say is..."Spidey gone emotional softie".....it has just too much conversation....i almost dosed off in the middle....but the best thing i did was scolded a mum for not assuring her precious daughter from rocking and stepping my seat from behind. i have actually endure that for almost 2 hours...but well...i cant stand it and i looked at the mom with my finger pointing at her daughter's leg and said "Do You Mind". not forgetting, that particular time, spidey was very boring, so i think within the perimeter of 10 feet of me...could hear me saying that....WAHAHAHHAHAHA.......even my friend who sat 5 feet away from me can hear it loud and clear...
anyway, i also met up with benny for the movie since i have extra tickets and coincidentally he knew a good friend of mine and in fact their moms are good sisters...talk about small world and the 6 degrees of circle of friend. well we chatted for few hours and updated.
my thursday and friday was practically a normal day..eehhee......
now here i am spent my weekend at home again....just to save money la.....but then I'm too bored...so i met up with anne and her bf for dinner just now...
now I'm sitting here updating my blog....

Quotation week
after my "A Series Of Unfortunate Events", my week is practically filled with quotation. From Monday till Thursday...from 8.30 to 6.15.. all i did was one quotation after another...
aiyoh...yamkung ah....sit in front of the pc...till backache, red eyes, carpal turnel and fucking tired...other than that..my boss gila invoice...made me do invoice when the quotation requested has pilled up....sigh.....still rushed me and even do it herself...so i end up doing all those extra work trying to go through it again, fully completing the paperwork...
luckily...i had a carefree tone down Friday...hehehe...a very very tone down..believe me....

A Series of Unfortunate Events
so there i was..on Monday...feeling the usual Monday blues....went to work..and rush my scheduled messy quotation...so there i was going through one item at a time.....concentrating hard....noticed my boss came in..and off she went out....10 minutes later....receptionist called....well guess what...my bad luck strikes again....my boss wants me to go down to the reception and brought catalogues up to the office. the catalogues were shipped over with the container and its products fill the area since Saturday till today
well i told myself..ok...since i managed to get away from the "ADVISE" i am surely cannot get away from this....so i treat it as a work out....there my colleague and i carried the boxes of catalogue up and down...arranging it to its designated area and BAM...bad luck strikes again...i cut myself ...NOT with a scissors or knife but paper cut...by one of the pages of catalogue...
after the workout......i continued with the messy quotation.....and guess what? my bad luck again strikes at me....my colleague also received the same messy quotation i received...to make matter worse...my boss said...we u guys each do it...and see who gets lucky and gets the sale....well this means each of us had to do identical stuff and yet only one of us get it....luckily my colleague also felt that and we agreed to share it...either way...our chances is higher...75% of getting it and 25% not getting it.....and i can reduced the load to half....so why not...
there i was busy going through my other quotation....after lunch....about 3pm....out of a sudden... the light and air con fuse tripped again....this happened weeks ago and yet it stil unsolved....after 10 minutes or so the repairman managed to get the light back on but not the air con...so its like a sauna in there......roasting....seating....and fustrated...
anyway...about 4.40pm it rained so the room temperature got colder and back to normal.....so basically...yesterday was all about quotation....very fast the day ended...off i go back home....as usual i did all the after work activities....then about 10.40pm.... BLACKOUT!!!! again......well considering i am having "A Series of Unfortunate Events" i am not surprised.....
so i wait and wait and wait..till 11.20pm..i ended up dosing off with no air con or fan or even window opened.....11.50pm......i woke up....sweating....and badly in need to go toilet...then i try to open the window and BANG!!...i kicked my chair......my toes felt numb for a few seconds and then felt a burning sensation.....i on my handphone flash light and found the outer epidermis of my toes was scrapped off with blood oozing out........
stopped the blood...and continued to sleep.....1.30am...finally electricity is back and i found i even sprained or pull my toes as well...
so the whole day i walked limping in my leather shoe and almost all colleague asked me...what happened to you leg??
so....this is "A Series of Unfortunate Events"....hopefully....the series ended with the bloodshed last night.

Miserable week!
anything can set me off...that kind of miserable.
so i tried my best not to get set off during working hours....going out to see customer whenever i could....anyway...i got through the first four days safely...
then on Thursday afternoon..i received a call from a dealer...informing me they'll will fax in a 300++ over items for quotation....A 300++ ITEMS!!!!!!!..........fuck man.....it'll take days to get it down......so after hearing that....i decided to take the rest of the day lepaking... i went out to deliver to customer then meet others and head home...
as soon as i reached home and online later Anne told me over a offline message via msn what i have been expecting for the past 3 months...FREE F1 tickets.....she minimum can get 2 tickets...so i can go watch the qualifying on Saturday...thats the least I'll get...since she'll be going with her bf on Sunday...so okla..right.....but then she'll will try to get me another tix and i can go to the race as well...it is a K1 gold grandstand tickets valued at RM700
there i was anxiously waiting whole night and till Friday morning about 11am...i got the good news....yes...she managed to get me a tix...YUP....i almost screamed out in office after i found out over ebuddy....which i not suppose to use...well who cares la..everyone using it..as if it is a open secret.
so...the excited and happily planning my weekend...with almost no mood to work..so happy till i had to moved my car for 2 times due to blocking...i am still ok...then out of a sudden about 4.30...i go a bad news...apparently Anne's CFO need the tix back...all because one of the shareholder asked for the tix from the CFO...so what to do....muntah balik-ed lo...all 3, RM2100 tix....sigh..........
after hearing that news...i felt so down....and to make matter worse..i had more bad news followed...the first was..i am AGAIN blocking ...another container...so there i go...ran from 3rd floor down to removed my car...already pissed...i continued to work...trying to reduce my work load...the second bad news came.....my boss came over.....speaking very bubbly "eh guys you 2 free tomorrow is it? come and help advise the warehouse people with the container stock, the X#@!^ guys did it. Kesian they all have to do so much"
I'm like...hey...this is not my job...it is way out of my job scope.."ADVISE" means i had to move and store the stock leh...labour work..and i am not getting anything from it..furthermore...the company has paid for the service..no way i am doing this.....if i do it..the next time and the rest of it..i have to do it....better set it straight...
my colleague already replied...I'm going back hometown...so i am directly the scapegoat...so i quickly replied..i am sorry..i have plan....pissed off...i did not look at my boss and continue to finished my work...with a bad look on my face......well i am already controlling myself...with such a bad week and not to mention a bad day!!......i could have exploded!...
anyway...since i did not get my free tix..i decided to take the weekend off...resting...but no matter how much i tried to stay at home..i still managed to spent money...ahahah
i spent RM65 on my haircut....and bit on my dinner...and just today....feeling so fucked up by my miserable week...i asked my brother to get me a BMW F1 pit crew replica T shirt...costing RM190....
now...at least....after the plush spending..i felt..at least my miserable week ended with a good weekend...
now hoping my coming week with a 300++ items quotation will be a good one...so now I'm off to updating my feng shui and make sure my week will be a good one.

REST
the past week alredy almost like honeymoon week and practically i am almost being a sales executive. i have been out everyday except Wednesday.....Frankly i do like it...hahahah....its less tiring compare to staying in office full day....
well weekdays are nothing but wake up early in the morning...then go working after that come home...rest then sleep......and so the cycle repeats again for the remaining 4 days of the week..

boy...i really need to plan my expenses...otherwise i will have difficulties to survive end of the month...
i need to monitor my expenses and document it...it seems like i lost track of my spending....some days i spent like Rm15 on my tolls alone....while some days i dun spent at all...

What a day
so the deprived sleep me...woke up...ate breakfast...came home..and laid on the sofa watching boring show on the tv...then i bathe hugo and look after all my pets followed by some errant
by 3 something i am back at home..having my McD...and i crashed the bed for a nap
i woke up about 5 and blurred for about an hour..then i had to get ready and reluctantly went to my company's annual dinner.....well since i just joined the company...i should show my face la...right...don't like it also...i have to go for the sake of being there...
by 7...i reached the venue...no idea where is the ballroom...i just drove nearby and see i find it or not...then i saw some of my colleagues in two cars, so i decided to follow them to the exact place....so there i was in the middle of three cars...going slow...and then stopped....right after we found the correct venue...i looked back and the other car following me or not...and right then...i see her car coming right into mine...BAM!!!!...my car jolted....then..i told myself.....damn...an excellent "women" driver!!! sure my car will be badly damaged......
i opened my car door...and check the damages...luckily...mine was ok....a crack backlight, slightly dented hatch and scratched bumper...well the "women" MYVI was not so fortunate...bonnet fully dented...bumper fully bended.....damages should be very costly...
anyway...the best thing she said was...i did not notice you have stopped....we were talking!!! (obviously her passenger) wah.....if she is not my colleague....i would have exploded...swearing, scolding and yelling.....but since she is...i cannot say anything la..
we parked our car...fully check the damages...and see how the compensation would be....obviously...this is not my fault.... whatever repair that needs to be done...must be paid by her...whether she claim her insurance or out from her...its not my business la...but all i can do is to minimise her damages la...well lets see how things goes..
well...the night did not end there....i got lucky draw...and i was given a hamper...a quite huge one....then...i was again chosen to be "10 BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE" in the company...5 guys and 5 gals.....and again i was given a complimentary of a cow shaped card holder.....
the dinner ended at about 11 and i came back home only get stucked in a jam at the KESAS's Hicom interchange for 15 minutes due to road upgrading...yup...a jam at 11pm. then and i had to had maggi curry to filled my stomach just before 12
so i had bad luck at the beginning of my night and good luck...again good luck followed by bad luck....
what a day....

Redundant work
most of my days were spent doing quotation and enquiry...well that is fine...but to do invoice, delivery order, credit notes and the worst..preparing goods to be delivered ie...fill up the damn citylink form to courier goods....my god...a total waste of time...like i am doing an accountant's work....
well...i guess..its an advantage to understand all this tedious paperwork....after all its all about learning la...paying tuition fees to the community university...haahha......okla....vent out liao......now need to move on and do my work...another day tomorrow......then its weekend......but cannot rest....parents around...then annual dinner on saturday night....
wah...i desperately in need of resting.........so tired....i need to spike my self with loads of nescafe in the morning. just to be able to function...hahaha..and...i've been sitting too much in front of the PC this 2 weeks...and gained some weight....
oh well..time to rest...another day ahead...

What a reward!!
but today out of a sudden...i got a breaking news... i was told it's not going to happen...sigh...all the dreams, all the hope...all came crashing down...disappearing right in front of my eyes...
well what can i do? nothing right....like what joanne said...no point complaining...complaining will not chance the fact. in fact complaning would actually make it worst...but i had to vent this out...so that at least i can sleep better tonight...so here i am..venting...
now all i can do is to either end this go for another way or to hang on and not thinking about the money....i think i should hang on...its still early to tell what coming...anyway i am stil young..long way to go...sooner or later the money will come..
am i really that materialistic? i know i am but to what extend?? sigh...........money is it that important?
anyway...got to be patient...soon the money will be here.....soon...
phew....i am feeling better already...

Another weekend gone
what i did was purely normal weekend activities.....
saturday morning..i woke up...go out to fix my car's door speaker cover...but i ended up spending RM350 on 4 alpine speakers replacing the old OEM speakers.....well i have been ignoring it for few years now...this time around...since the door panel has been removed..i decided its a good chance to do it..once and for all...furthermore..i'll be sitting in my car almost half of the day travelling here and there...so...i guess okla...
then i got it done in about an hour rush to tapau lunch and rushed to PJ to pick up joanne and head to Ikea/The curve....when we're in the curve joanne said she want to check her HSBC credit card's point at the booth....there we saw the same girl that i applied my HSBC card earlier in September...ahahah...what a coincidence......so i complained la...my last application was rejected...so still want me to apply ah...but then she told us..they having promo now..apply now can get instant gift...hahah so the opportunist us went ahead and applied and also supplement each other for additional gift. at the end we had 3 sets of gift, 2 coca-cola glass cups and a universal HP charger....
then we head to Ikea and spent RM100.80 for storage rack and others. at about 5.30, jessie, joanne's best university friend joined us and we had baskin robbin till 7. she then brought us to Kepong, next to Carrefour for Bak Kut Teh followed by her new crib for house warming....anyway i left about 11pm while they hang out till 2.30 according to joanne...
well today i basically did nothing but managing my pets...i had to bathe Hugo and change my aquarium waters. really did not sat down and not worry about the things i need to do...sigh...
tomorrow..it's monday and need to work...
next weekend i hope i can sit down at home and relax.....finger crossed...

well time will tell...
its weekend...time to relax and enjoy....ikea sale started...so...ikea...here i come...
Thursday, March 1, 2007
So far so good
went to lots of places which i haven been before...very interesting though....haahha. kinda enjoy it....or i have found "THE ONE".....time will tell...
anyway...with the maid around...all housework has been taken away from my shoulder and all i need to do is to take care of my pets and Hugo included of course.....
pity the fella...stay in his kennel all day long.....have 2-3 hours a day out...and all this 4 days...i took him out for his daily walk around the neighbourhood and but not least...to play with him...soon...i'll ask the maid to let him out during the day...when she get use to him...actually his playfulness...too friendly to her liking...
well tomorrow is Friday...hahah....weekend is here...the days which i hope everyday is weekend is finally back....sigh...life is very miserable...
Monday, February 26, 2007
A good first day
i understand most of it...hopefully i will like this job or should i say sales is for me..
this morning...i expected to be flooded with information by the sales manager.....judging from the interview....she sure bla bla bla bla bla...and so she did...
gave me loads of information...and follow up job for her...calling customer.....yup on my first day..without much knowledge on the product....
both her sales subordinate which i replaced and another guy coming this thursday actually left for more than a month...one after another...so there is something fishy behind it...i have yet to found out why they left? stress? better offer? or bad sales manager....bare in mind...she is a malay....that managed the whole subsidiary company...she reports to the big boss but luckily he is a chinese guy......so no wonder the company policy kinda strict. all just ngam ngam enough or on average...
anyway...nothing i can do...no point worrying too much...try and see whether this company is good or not...not good..then find another lo.....2 weeks notice only mah....
3 months trial la...cannot then i start job hunting....
tomorrow it's second day...see how it goes...will need a week or so to get use to the place...

as for CNY....it was ok...not a great one...but still it is a chance where i can meet everyone...well almost la...some relative did not turn up..some i missed them while i was out...
journey back to hometown and back to KL was ok for me...as i chose the least crowded time...but those who cannot end up jammed on the NSE for hours...Hugo had a great time in the car...he acted like a 3 years old boy...who cannot sit still...while occasional disturbance from him...and surprising he adapted well back in bidor....the best was...he answer to my mom right after he came out of the car....and he seems to be ok with the firecracker...no sound made...just minor panic....hahahahahah...overall he is ok la...what can i say..hahaha
as for my CNY activities.....all yum cha-ing and chatting (lots of gossiping) hahahaha....and like Joanne said...KUTUK-ing...hahha....with Topic Of The Year...hahahah...felt kinda old man activities la........nothing interesting at all....only catching up and updating....all these seems to be very hard nowadays when everyone is busy with their work and life....
now...it's back to normal life....WORKING.....wake up...work work work..come home rest and repeat the same thing over and over again...while looking forward to weekends and public holidays....sien man....
Thursday, February 15, 2007

my mom actually wanted to hung it up when we moved house...earlier on..approximately 12 years ago...typical my mom....ahahahah... lots of reason to buy and lots of reason not to use it....so waste money la...like my father always says so....luckily it is still in good condition....now i can put it up and decor the empty staircase.
well to add to this headache....my beloved brother...aka hugo.... show his stubbornness/playfulness/being naugthy again..he bite 2 small plastic pot with dying cactus back to back...right after the first one...he got the caning from me...then i went to buy newspaper ...as soon as i got back...i saw him with another 1......so there i go pissed off...holding a cane...and whacked the fella "kau kau" for the second time...
had to really do that...he made a mess...with soil all over the porch...earlier on tuesday..he did that once.....but did not caught him in the act of doing it...so i just whacked him with a shoe...so today's recurrence i had to punished him well....caught him in the act..he sure know why i punished him.
anyway he is still a kid...just past 1 year old...coming 14th its his 1 year and 1 month....so need more teaching...although most said he's well trained...hopefully he behaved well during CNY..his first time going back to bidor....i had put him behind the car seat..and hope he'll stay put and still throughout the 1 hour 20 minutes ride back...you know young kid is hyperactive...hahahhah....

More Damages
i just spent RM465 on a K510i...its AP warrantied....anyway i planned to buy the K320i....but the AP warrantied sells for RM400 while Sony Ericsson Malaysia warrantied sells for Rm490..i decided to pay Rm25 cheaper and get better quality colour screen, more phone memory and also a better camera.
since the seller seems to be the kind that responsible judging from the way he customer serviced me. i decided i can trust this guy. even Benny who tag along with me noticed it....we acted as if Benny that going to buy the phone and we managed to bargain the price from initial Rm480 to RM465..we wanted Rm460...but he just reluctant...so..okla...deal lo...
then we continued acting and go withdraw money as i need to pass the cash to Benny and mean time we went to Digi counter to buy Digi prepaid...find and find and decided on 0143268603...sort of rhyme a bit la...other counter sells even worst number while nice numbers are all sold for high price...so i am so not gonna be 1 of the people that do so...so stupid meh....pay extra.....so i thought...cin chai la...
but then i went back to the counter to get my phone..i realised the earlier number i saw is better 0163807812.....well at its 7 to 8 and then 1 to 2 la...and also the 38 and 78....so acceptable la...my car number plate coincidentally 5812....i then told the seller...i like this..but i just bought earlier.....right at the moment the seller said..okla..i change for you la...you haven't open it right..then okla...so...now i got 0163807812....
anyway....i'll wait till i start work then only i will activate the number...well i at least can save some money on the credit la....
so total spending today is RM473.50 for K510i and a Digi prepaid....sigh...

Pathetic Doctor
her first reaction after i told her i need a clearance from her...stating that the suspected HFMD i had are no longer infectious was "oh..i can't do that, you need to go to the specialist and let them do blood test for you and i'll refer you to them"
im like...what? specialist? i am all ok now? no longer having any symptoms. is that really necessary? i only need a letter stating that i am no longer infectious...NOT confirmed i had HFMD..
she replied "no. you must be tested then only i can say that you are not infectious anymore" then she stated to bla bla bla non stop...not allowing me to talk more..till the point i said" ok..can you let me finished talking first! before you say more" by then only she shut her mouth and listen.
i explained...i just need a letter stating that the infectious symptoms i had no longer can be seen, so infecting people are almost impossible...
right after i finished...she bla bla bla...defensively asking me to go specialist...i told her how much i have to spent to get this done. she replied "well this is what you need to do"
i told her again that my employer does not need confirmation of me having HFMD. they need to know i am not infectious anymore. they do not want me to be blamed if there is any outbreak when i start working there.
then out of the sudden she scolded me why you go tell them you have HFMD during your interview?
that point i am so pissed..i told her that time when i went to interview the skin on my palm are peeling off...they offering me hand shake..should i just ignore and do so or i explained to them what i am having.
she annoyed and asked me why you don't tell me you going for interview when you come to see me earlier on? i told her i got the call for interview a week after i came to see you..so how to tell you.
OMG...where got doctor like that one??? till she can say i am responsible that she need to write this letter...
she again asked me to go specialist and more bla bla bla till i suggested..i cant test my blood here...then she paused and replied" i am not sure i need to call the lab people and ask them and see how. if they can't then i have to refer you to the specialist" while giving me a pissed off look she asked me to wait outside while she made some calls
so there i was also darn pissed off and waited outside her office about 5 minutes or so....while noticing her voice on the phone...then its silence for a while..out of a sudden...she opened the door and asked me to go in ...
so i went in and she past me a letter which stated exactly what i told her and asked me to read through it. after going through it. i asked so now do i need to do blood test? while smiling she replied "no. i called my friend who is also a physician who said there is no need to do blood test as it is not what we should do", "so now i'll pass this to the nurse and get this stamped and you can collect it at the counter"," ok anything else"
i am so damn pissed off man...i spent 10 minutes asking you to just say i am no longer having symptoms of infectious while you kept defensively shrug it off to specialist. whats the point of her being a doctor when she cant write a simple letter. by the way when i consulted her earlier on she actually took out a notes book and read the notes on HFMD while so called explaining to me.....this shows that she is does not have much understanding in this disease la...
well i am ok with that...i don't expect her to know all...but not till like shrugging me off to the specialist while you can write a letter which is more to a point of opinion. it is not a confirmation from her.
oh yeah....when i collected the letter the nurse asked me for rm15...freaking RM15..RM 10 la..acceptable...so i chose the worst condition RM 15 in my wallet and gave it away...
FUCK man....damn pathetic la...this doctor. till the point i need to tell her what to do instead of her suggesting me the way to simplify things.
and there goes my new year resolution, i lost my patience....dammit..ehhehehe
31st January 2007
possibly the habit that i've been carried forward during my sister in law's "full moon" month and the present of "pui yuet" which lead to abundant of food. now i need to lose the extra 1 1/2 kg i added hahahha...wonder how i did ah..because for the past 2 weeks i have been spring cleaning. so i guess i am more active rather than being a couch potato.
anyway, life been nothing but full of activities for the past 2 weeks, spring cleaning, shopping, baby sitting, watch damn lot of TV shows....now i ended up with exhaustion and a hole on my credit card. i literary spent about rm1200 for the past 2 weeks...well lets see
- Ikea = RM 256.60
- Tesco = RM117.94
- The Branded Store = RM289.00
- FOS = RM47.80
- G2000 = RM93.87
- The Under Shop = RM59.80
- TGI Fridays = RM107.65
- G2000 = RM 53.55
- Fila = RM70.00
- Nike Culture = Rm79.00
Total = RM 1175.01 excluding car park, fuel and miscellaneous
okla...i excluded my weekdays activities...this all happens on the 20th, 27th and 28th...it is a very enjoyable weekend especially the 27th and 28th. i spent RM800.47 for the 2 particular days..
quite impressive eh!!....thats why i want to have this blogged down...hahahah...then next time i have a reference for comparison but i have done much more damaging prior to this but it is not for personal use la..this time it is really spent on personal pleasure especially the Ralph Lauren Polo Shirt...haahhaah
now...no more over the top spending...1 more planned spending is my hair cut with A Cut Above for RM60 and i think thats all la....i do not think i'll buy more...with 4 T-shirt and 1 polo shirt for CNY and 2 more G2000 shirt for working.....but i had to put my Nike sneaker on hold after i bought the polo shirt.....
now i can say i am broke!!...time to ask my father for allowance....well at least i did not asked for any for the month of December and January..

Desperate

- the company that offering me the job is so desperate till they kept calling me (2nd time this week) for update on the doctor's certification of fitness from HFMD while i have to repeat the same thing "i have a second consultation with the doctor next week Wednesday, 31st and after that the doctor will take a few days to issue me the letter" " when i have the letter i'll call again and see how i can pass the letter over" "so is it ok?" "ok then, thanks, bye bye".
- MSD, the company I'm hoping to get an offer still yet to updated me regarding the matter, so the desperate me called the area manager who interviewed me to enquire about the shortlisting/confirmation....errr...actually to b precise i've called 4 times and left a message too...hahah...and then finally i got a call from her informing me that i am KIV, Keep In View and reluctant to confirm any decision...so i told her..i have an offer and i've delay the offer till next week..so i need a confirmation, otherwise I'll have to accept the offer and move on. upon hearing that she told me she'll give me a confirmation on the decision on monday...phew....so daring of me saying that....as if i am that valuable/gifted/talented fresh graduate.....hahahahha...well..it works rite...so daring is the thing, scare will leave you to nowhere...so that is why i dare enough to resign from my last job till my ex-supervisor commented on my bravery act to do so....

anyway...i supposed to call "the new company" and lie 1....hahaah...mana tau...they call me at about 1130 am...luckily i've thought of reasons to tell la...so as planned..i told the person..i've checked with the Dr and was told to go back for another consultancy on the 31st or 1st (this will buy me more than a week time to wait for update from MSD)...then after the consult the Dr will need a few days more to prepare the letter...and i should only be able to join the company earliest by 5th Feb. may be by then i'll think of something to delay it......heheh...may be after CNY??? we'll see how la..
okla..i know i'm bad la...till Kelly said im good at lying...but for me this is survival skill only....hahahah...... :)
well..i have stop alredy....cannot stay here much longer...been sitting here for more than 4 hours transfering all my archive from my friendster and xanga blog to here...my final permanent site which by the way highly recomended by April...
now i need more time to play with the customisation.....
IKEA
jz went to another round of ikea...hehehe...first time for the yr
spent eh....let me check the resit....RM256.60
2 cushion RM 16.00, 2 soft toys RM4, 7 Bamboo plant RM 61.60, 1 bunch of pussy willow, RM 16.00 and 1 chest drawer RM159.00
so you can see...how much ikea can make in a day....for me...personally i spent RM260 alredy..i think minimum also 100K per day
boy!! getting the 7 bamboo plant is the hardest....i had to beat the crowd...then check 1 by 1...n wait for the staff to open a new box and fight with the crowd to get the best....i managed to get 8, but later i found 1 was broken....so i had to leave it..on my way out... getting pussy willow is slightly easier...as its everywhere....i choose mine awat from the crowd...and found quite a good 1
well..my main purpose was to get the chest drawer which is on promo and of course pussy willow for CNY decor la..they reduced the price from RM18 to RM16..i think is because tesco price it at RM17.88 while carrefour at rm16.88...so lucky me i went think week and not last weekend....heheh...i think the flu came in the right time leh....first is the interview then this...hahaha..not forgeting the HFMD....
anyway....if not because of the over slept..(heheh..usual la..alarm rang...off it and continue to zzzzzzzzz) woke up at 11am when i planned to reached ikea at 10.30am....hahha..and find the best stuff easily.
anyway...i left for ikea at 12.30pm and went to ikea at 2pm followed bt tesco which i spent about RM150 for groceries came home about 4pm ...so in total...today i spent about RM 400 la..
hehehe......besides that i also found that the sony ericsson K320 is RM440 for AP warranty..hmmmm..wonder i can get it cheaper soon.CNY nearing...all wanna clear stock....now i need a cheap phone with bluetooth capability as second phone..for my sales job....i want my personal current line to be personal, otherwise....client will be calling and calling....want to off the phone also cannot rite when family and friends might be calling..so..what to do...buy a cheap functional phone lo...
hahha...sure kena scold later....haven work in sales yet alredy get second phone....hehehehe

Good luck or bad luck?
i duno whether having HFMD is bad luck or it brings me good luck
yesterday morning, i had an interview with MSD, Merck, Sharp & Dohme. so the interview as usual la....intro, Q&A, bla bla bla...but then a surprise...a mock client appointment was created...asking me to sell the a product to her the interviewer! and gave me 10 mins to prepare a so called presentation la.. but prior to this, while i was waiting for my interview, i was given a catalogue for reading la...
so there i was...trying to get a simple flow from the catalogue and just try to act and show how i can use whatever i can understand from the catalogue and convince her i can talk and manage unforseen circumstances
anyway..while preparing...i got a call, a company called and offering the senior sales executive position leh...ahahahha and i thought that super fast talkative malay girl sales manager not interested in me. but i was told she was impressed with the interview...however, there's a condition! I need to produce them a letter from a Dr certified that i am no longer having HFMD and it is not contagious anymore. then after i produced them the letter only then i can get the offer letter. Anyway i am scheduled to start work in Febuary
so is this pure luck or what? but then i came to think of it ...ei...i can use this letter and delay the offer till i can hear for any hope from MSD. besides of this....i kinda used my cough to make my interview less pause ( well its actually in the sense of not having a blank face and trying to think of a word, so i turn away and cough a bit and think of the word in the process. hahahahahaah )
now i need to really go to a Dr and fake a situation that required some time before the letter can be produce..so in the mean time i can wait for MSD.
well i find that the interview when quite well so hopefully got chance la..
